“高人一等”是这样说的
While people are just about to have a piece of Roscoe's birthday cake, Timothy is about to finish his piece. "You might say I am a cut above ordinary folks," Timothy smiled. Well, at least he is braver! When someone or something is a cut above he, she or it is better. "More alert (机灵) and more distinguished (杰出) are descriptions that would apply," Timothy smiled as he went back for more cake.

当人们准备分享罗斯科的生日蛋糕，蒂莫西已经快吃完自己那份了。蒂莫西笑着说：“你可以说我比普通人强一些。”至少他很勇敢。如果用“a cut above”形容某人或某事，就是说他/她/它比较优秀。蒂莫西准备开吃下一块蛋糕，他笑着说：“这代表着要比别人机灵一点，杰出一点。”
